      We Understand That Lord Mahon Was Asked ...

      We understand that Lord Mahon was asked to oppose Mr . Gladstone ' s return , and to stand once again for Greenwich . He is said to have replied , in what we should call rather alien reference to the most distinguished and best-known inhabitants of that borough— " Not I , indeed . Pas si bite / "

      We Are Informed That When Mr. Bright Was...

      We are informed that when Mr . Bright was presented to Her Majesty , he was , in deference to his feelings , excused from kissing the Queen ' s hand . We are surprised that this chivalrous ceremony should be objected to by a man who has scores of times performed an infinitely more revolting act of

      obeisance to a room-full of wliat he has himself called the residuum . Tastes differ ; but for himself , Tomahawk would rather kiss the hand of a woman—and such a woman !—than lick the feet of a crowd .
